Born 1951 in Belgrade, Serbia (then Federative Republic Of Yugoslavia).
Finished Faculty of Music Arts in Belgrade. Started playing electric
piano in Radio Belgrade's Big Band. Then he played with a band where he
met his future friend and co-worker Sanja Ilic. Realising that being in
a band doesn't get much exept fame, he started working sometimes
composer but much often arranger for other popular artists in former
Yugoslavia. Since then he made arrangements for thousands of movies, tv
shows and theatre plays as of course pop singers. He was music editor
first on Radio Belgrade than in RTB record Company (one of the
biggest). He published an instrumental album with Sanja Ilic named
Delta Project (1987). It is still the best-selling instrumental album
in Balcan area ever! Also he wrote a piano concert in 2003 where he
made some paraphrases of John Williams, his favourite composer. He
worked with lots of famous musicians, but for film fans the most
memorable celebrities he worked with are Giorgio Moroder and Goran
Bregovic. Today, he still works all day, sometimes reading books from
his large Sci-fi collection or watching big Hollywood box-office hits
with loads of effects. He's preparing a new arrangement of hymn for
Serbia And Montenegro and his solo instrumental album is planned to be
released at the end of 2005.
